Better than 1% resolution
Key:
Worse than 1% resolution
Measuring capacitance outside of the black bands will result in degraded
measurement resolution (possibly worse than 1% of the measured value).
Measuring capacitance outside of the white bands may not be possible and
could result in unexpected readings.
If the frequency mode is set to
, the measured capacitance
should lie comfortably within the relevant band. If the automatically selected
frequency cannot be correctly determined then it may be necessary to
manually select an appropriate test frequency.
